My First "Rate Team" Thread...
[email protected] Glasses/Focus Sash/Expert Belt - (Which one?)
Modest Nature Speed Boost 252 Sp Atk, 252 Speed, 6 HP Air Slash Protect HP Ice (70) Bug Buzz I love this guy. He is the fastest on my team, has a great sweeping capacity, and isn't as easy to kill as one would think. (Survived Thunderbolt from Modest Starmie!!! [Freak of nature thing happening here]) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [email protected] Belt Adamant Motor Drive 178 Atk, 252 Speed, 80 Sp. Atk Cross Chop Thunderbolt Ice Punch Earthquake Common Electivire with Thunderbolt over Thunderpunch for the Skarmory counter. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [email protected] Impish Nature 228 Hp, 2284Def, 56 Attack Power Whip Sleep Powder Knock Off Leech Seed This is why Tangrowth is better than Celebi. Great move set with the right EV/IV set up. Knock Off is great to show what Salamence is up to, and can disable many item-based strategies. Is a very good Blissey killer, with Leech Seed/Sleep Powder. Physical Wall Capabilities will be shown. [email protected] 350 Atk + DD + Ice Fang = <3HKO when leftovers is factored, while Power Whip can deal up to 40%, add to that Leech Seed, and perhaps even 4HKO resistance with possibility of Gyara KO. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [email protected] Lens (Only for Hypnosis, really need opinion on this) Bold Nature Mavel Scale 142 HP, 158 Def, 104 Sp Atk, 106 Sp Def Hypnosis Ice Beam Recover Surf/Hydro Pump (Samson gave advice on use due to Wide Lens, need second opinion.) Along with Yanmega and Electivire steered me to 100 straight Battle Tower wins. Extremely helpful with Hypnosis, and also great against Garchomp, T-tar, Salamence (Non-Special Variety), Dragonite and others. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [email protected] Bold Nature 252 Def, 252 Hp, 6 Sp. Atk Aromatherapy Seismic Toss Ice Beam/Thunderwave Softboiled -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [email protected] Orb Jolly Arena Trap 252 Atk, 252 Speed, 6 Def Stone Edge Sucker Punch Earthquake Aerial Ace Great electivire counter, and has also been known to KO many an aerodactyl and weavile. (Yes, it outsped a Weavile. Only 5 Base Speed lower, with max EV's Speed and 31 IV's in Speed, unless the opponent is running Jolly or has 31 IV's Speed + Max EV's Speed, then I should be able to outspeed.) Regards, ~M51 |
You posted 9 Pokemon ._. You shouldn't use Yanmega as a lead, it should be for Late-game sweeping

Actually, no problems with Gyarados surprisingly. That Thunderbolt over Thunderpunch is a great way to prevent that I suppose, and as for Blissey, I don't want defense EV's on it. No matter the Physical move, I switch to Donphan and then Ice Shard, as the main worries for Blissey are T-tar, Garchomp etc. etc.
Probably could run more atk on Donphan, would need to check how much exactly for maximum effect, but it would come out of HP, perhaps too much there, but otherwise, it should be ok. As for Yanmega, it survived with 22 odd left, but I was suprised extremely, although Focus Sash would have made the same impact. The reason for no HP is the use of Focus Sash, but if going with others, then perhaps HP. Would definately go with HP if using Life Orb, but not wanted, seeing as Wise Glasses would do the same job without Hp loss. Expert Belt was for its rather high Super-Eff hits. Thankyou for your help. :) Outsped Weavile with 252 Speed and agility boost from Baton Pass Scizor once upon a time. (Ages ago) Although that is the case, 31 IV's in speed perhaps overtook a dismal Weavile IV of under 27 'ish I suppose...??? ~M51 |

bliss NEEDS max defense. Otherwsie, don't bother. Dugtrio really needs choice badn...like, REALLY needs choice band. |
So perhaps switch Blissey with another Special Wall? If so, which one?
or.......I could use CHOICE BAND BLISSEY! Who needs 2HKO Donphan on Garchomp when Blissey can 27HKO it! YEAH!!!!!!!!!! lol ~M51 |

EDIT: Weavile @ 125 Base Speed and Dugtrio @ 120 Base Speed. Here lies my theory in the lower IV's on Weavile, and it was Adamant, not Jolly. ~M51 |

No, I mean the Gyarados using earthquake on Blissey, not having EQ as an attack...lol
What about the use of Bronzong over Donphan/Milotic? Did you see my Bronzong set? ~M51 |
Iceman3k wouldn't recommend EQ on 10 base attack bliss...
I'm not crazy about bronzong. You'd have to wait until sims comes along, as he knows more about bronzong than I. |
I do think you mean someone attacking a Blissey with Earthquake.
Personally, that's the last thing anyone would do. They'd pummel Blissey with STAB Attacks before Earthquaking it. |

EQing bliss isn't smart...once it gets hit once, a flyer or levitater comes in and is uneffected, then makes you switch :(:(:(
EDIT: Who keeps blissey in against gyarados??? |
Quote:
BUT AGAIN! I AM CHANGING BLISSEY now, so no need to really worry anymore. It will be improved. ~M51 |
Put in tangrowth over donphan, cvuz it's hawt, and then put in something actually capable of taking special attacks SNORLAX FTW

Gyarados vs Blissey Blissey switch to [email protected] Focus Sash Gyarados uses Earthquake Doesn't hit Yanmega or other move = 1 HP Yanmega Switch to Electivire Gyarados @ ??? (Hopefully not Earthquake, but may include Focus Sash on Electivire if it comes to that) Electivire uses Thunderpunch (Now that there is no Intimidate, should KO Gyarados.) That was the logic. ~M51 |
